Yesterday Today Tomorrow

As I told my maid can be a translator for Hindi before, I will mention about her mysterious English at this time.

We can manage to communicate each other some how, so it is good enough as a housekeeper. However her English does not have any time tense.
I can try to understand it without time tense on grammatically. But the most problem is that she does not remember time words such as Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow.

TODAY is
ToouDauiie, OK? ToouDauiie. I taught her it with heavy southern drawl as like George Bush or Steven Paul Jobs.

THE DAY BEFORE TODAY is
Yastardauiie, OK? Yastardauiie oah mai toablo simo so fae eei ♪ It is John, Paul, George and Ringoo ♪

THE DAY AFTER TODAY is
Toamaoulaoue, OK? Toamaoulaoue The Day After Tomorrow by Roland Emmerich film.

My maid became to think them over with serious face.
Please don't think over them too much.

Me “Anyway, did you clean my room as I asked you?”
Maid “ Yastardauiie oah mai toablo simo so fae eei♪”
Me “You don’t need to song it...”

Tiger and Dragon

In childhood, everybody has a hankering to conquer the world.
The world conqueror is great. Because it is the most respected person all over the world.
Speaking of process of conquering the world, it would be very difficult, because nobody has achieved it yet. Considering for things which is almost impossible means wasting time. Therefore, I will tell about story which is after achievement of being The World Conqueror.

“Hello, Hello! Mr. World Conqueror”

“YES, YES. What’s up?”

“How are you solving about world issues such as world worming, religious war, nuclear war, energy, food and water, North-South gap and etc…?”

“Good question! Actually, I have already arranged a meeting for them. My project team accepts only positive ideas to solve them. If we manage to coop it with great effort, we must get great results, as I am sure. Please leave them to me”

“No, I don’t mean so. I want to ask about your concrete plan to solve them. Please explain your project more concretely?”

“More concretely?
I mean… everybody in the world should make their best effort.
Please do your best!
Thank you. BYE THEN”

I think that only I can answer is like that. It sounds like just a symbol or a stupid king. As result of this, The world conqueror is just stupid dream.

By The Way, Real great dream would be Gourmet Reporters on TV or Michelin reporters. They are really nice occupations, only they have to do is to report “This is delicious!” If the dish really look like delicious, audience may be convinced with the report without wondering.

“Hello, Hello! Mr. Michelin reporter”

“YES, YES. Chef?”

“How do you think our dishes?”

“OH, this is really nice! Especially this lamb is delicious!”

“No, this is mutton.”

“… … …”

“I think this wine is also nice, it would be Chateau Hault Brion, priceless Vintage 1970, right? It is really different to cheap wine”

“No, it is Australian cheap wine”

“… … … Geeeeeee…
I am not a good feeling! I can’t give any Stars to your restaurant!
Suck ass! BYE THEN!”

“Hey, you forget to pay!”

I think that only I can answer is like that. Although, I admire the dish, the chef was really rude. As result of this, The Michelin reporter is just stupid dream.

EVERYDAY CURRY

As I named INDIAN JOURNEY to my blog, I will mention about India at this time.

Tripitaka, Monkey, Pigsy and Sandy passed through areas along the Silk Road to reach it. However things are different now. THE BIG DIFFERENT IS A BOEING 747 which keeps 200-300 passengers, and has world record for 13000Km nonstop flight by a commercial airplane.

Visiting India is for business reason that it means a long stay.
Speaking long stay, I am apt to worry about daily meal.
“Perhaps, I would have to eat curry everyday?”
I got a nightmare during boarding of Boeing 747.

Even Indian people would be fed up with curry, if they eat it everyday. Indian must have Indian type of various foods… I disagreed with my nightmare by supporting this idea.

However, they are Indian who really loves curry.
When I was close to lose against my nightmare, its smell became fill into Boeing 747.

Curry was served in Boeing 747 as in-flight meal.

It would have been a first trial from Indian. I don’t want to be beaten by curry anymore.

While all of this was going on, two months have passed since I arrived at India.
How can I describe… How should I say…

India is everyday curry.

AUTO THREE WHEELS

Everyday, I go to work by Rickshaw which is not bus or taxi, but its style is similar to cab, as hiring a car and a driver to go to direction.

However, it is cheap, is just Rs.20.
The point what is reason of cheap, because it is Auto- three wheels. Actually, I don’t know how English calls it. So I have no choice, but to call Auto- three wheels.
As you know, three wheels are easy to fall down into ground, because it has only 3 wheels.
I guess it is a big point of reasonable, we bet our life with 3 wheels.

Even though it is cheap, it also has negative points.
It can’t work under big raining, and Rickshaw driver cheats people, and refuses passengers who want to close distance.

I have to be convinced about no working in raining, because its engine seems to come from 30 years ago. But I can’t stand with their cheating.
As India has big population, there are many customers of Rickshaw. Therefore, they just prefer customers who go to far distance for their mater.
What’s more, almost all Rickshaws are not belonged to any corporate. It means they manage by themselves personally. So we don’t have any way to make claim against them.

Therefore, when they find foreigners, they are apt to try to cheat.
I might be seemed a Hollywood star, so they seem to misunderstand that I am rich, but it is totally wrong. I am poor indeed.
They say Rs.100, even though it is Rs.20 truly.
Thus, I always have a big discussion with a Rikishaw driver to discount.
